Thank
you for visiting our web site!
This
site began as a page on a single Sargent
painting (El Jaleo)
in 1997. In 1999 it sprouted other
pages and turned into a general project
on Sargent's art, with Teej supplying
a wonderful essay overview (here).*
Since
then the site has continued to evolve,
with more information being added
periodically, and principally, the
link section being improved. The popularity
of this taciturn Victorian, quasi-american
expatriate continues to rise, and
the internet is becoming the home
to more and more information. How
much of this is worthwhile is for
the reader to judge.
This
site originally prepared using Adobe
Pagemill on a Macintosh Quadra 610.
More recent versions maintained using
Macromedia Dreamweaver and a combination
of Apple iMac and eMacs.

*(Funny thing about
that essay are the very strong comments
some viewers send in - - one woman
basically assailed Teej for all kinds
of crimes against humanity - women
in particular - and through some error
on her part carried on a general verbal
assault with the wrong idea that Teej
is a man. Another outrage is Teej's
listing of Sargent with Winslow Homer,
Georgia O'Keefe and - - horrors -
Tadema. Doesn't Teej know that's not
allowed? Whole art schools would be
expelled at the idea.)
